I like this one a lot; green and blue is one of my favorite color combinations.

Mike, nice job on this one, even better is watching you wrap it with the rod on your lap. nice to see a few new guys posting here recently, hopefully that trend continues throughout the winter wrappign season.

I agree with Billy. Nice to see some thread are back in view. Considering what Billy says about lap wrapping you did a great job.

Nice wrap Mike. I really like how you extended the "arms" so they wrap further around the blank.

Wrapping and packing thread sitting in a plastic resin chair. Looks like it closed just fine. The picture doesn't do the wrap much justice, it looks much better in person. Great job!

Man looks like i missed a good one at Pauls shop last week. That wrap sort of glistens in the green cross and has what looks like a star there when you concentrat on the white star. Real nice job!

thanks for all the kind words guys. Special thanks to Billy for getting me started with the decorative wraps. Seeing his work when I visited his shop for the first time got the wheels turning. Also thanks to Paul for having the gathering last weekend, it was great. Finally thanks to Sean, when I saw your gargoyle wrap the other weekend I decided I wanted to wrap that pattern.
